Reunion and Jardin des Parfums et des Epices
Last November.
Pink bananas and pink pineapples.
Vanilla orchids.
Scaevola that grows in salt spray on the shore.
Grass that can colonise lava by the sea.
A tropicbird with long white tail.
Lichen that colonises lava.
So many exotic plants (and bird).
Wonderful to meet in life what I recognise from iNat!
